I had the privilege of talking to one of the most down to Earth people i have ever talked to about their musical tastes and their MMA background. That person was Travis Chappell.
Travis got started in MMA after a wrestling career in high school and college. He was looking for a way to satisfy his competitive nature. He went to a class out of curiosity and as they say the rest is history ! He found that MMA satisfied his competitive nature.
He has trained with Joker Guymon at Joker's MMA in Lake Forest, California. When they met it was an instant friendship that lasts to this very day! Another source of training and knowlege and inspiration he has obtained through the friendship with Joker Guymon is Jake and Joe Ellenberger of EllenbergerMMA in Nebraska.
Travis' very first walkout song was Stranglehold by TedNugent
He still uses this song as his walkout.
His top 5 songs on his Ipod that he listens to, to get him pumped up are:
#1 Stranglehold by Ted Nugenthttp://youtu.be/4kBIhOn_9CM
#2 Lose Yourself by Eminem http://youtu.be/1TADyXC2K0g
#3 For Those About To Rock by AC/DC http://youtu.be/xMUgmU_Hsjc
#4 Undead by Hollywood Undead http://youtu.be/qgkx8qPUOy0
#5 Midnight Rider by Willie Nelson http://youtu.be/pP8xC73_LY8
I hope you enjoy listening to this music as much as Travis and I do ! Thanks Travis for your time !
